Battlefield 3 publisher EA has confirmed it will give those players who bought Battlefield 3 for the PlayStation 3 a copy of 2009 PSN title Battlefield 1943. The confirmation comes after accusations of a bonus bait-and-switch; in June, PS3 players were promised Battlefield 1943 for free when they bought BF3, but on the day of launch EA cancelled that deal. The subsequent discontent amounted to the recent filing of a class action lawsuit against EA.

Now, EA says there have been "some misunderstandings" around the deal, and to clear those up it is restoring the original bonus, "making Battlefield 1943 available free of charge to owners of Battlefield 3 on the PS3 beginning this month"
